SRINAGAR: The Jammu-Srinagar highway was shut for the second consecutive day on Wednesday due to the landslide and shooting stones.
On Monday, a heavy landslide at Shalgadi, Banihal forcing the suspension of the traffic, said SSP traffic Mohita Sharma.
“The decision regarding allowing the movement of traffic on the highway will be taken only after the road is cleared off by the road maintenance agency concerned and after assessing the road condition,” she said.
